I've held the other view in keeping them separate -- I have lot's of

I had host disappear overnight. It's one thing to put your site up 
again somewhere else, but it's another to have all your sites go down 
when a register fails, but I fortunately have never had that happen.

Mine looks cheaper!  Heh.

I actually lose a penny for each domain I sell at that price, I
think, but it's an attempt to gain attention for my newest hosting
company.  And by the way

Yes, but at the core, Namecheap (http://www.namecheap.com/) is
just like me (http://domains.pilotpig.net/) - a domain reseller.  A
bigger, richer, more well-known reseller, but still just a reseller.

I have had good luck with iyd.com (http://www.itsyourdomain.com) for

I own over 60 domains as well and my cost is less than $9.00 each for 
everything.


I was just informed this morning that iyd was purchased by Tucows, so 
I don't know how that will affect things. But, I've had good luck 
with Tucows in other things -- so I'm expecting no problems.


In any event, I wouldn't go with either of the ones you mentioned. 
Back luck with both.

Re: [PHP] OT- why is network solutions more than godaddy?

2007-08-03 Thread Eric Holt (PHP List)

How about a middle-of-the-road solution?

www.PairNIC.com

The domain services of the very good webhost, Pair Networks.  I've been 
with their hosting solutions since 1998, and with their domain 
registration services since whenever it opened (5 years ago, I spose).


Not the cheapest, not the most expensive, but great support, and great 
value of services that comes along with the registration.


Plus, its Pair!  (No, I dont work for them, just a very happy customer).

Ave,

I think I have at least 13 domains (personal + business) with GoDaddy, for
over 4 years now. No problems whatsoever. And their domains do come with a
boatload of stuff.

This is something like getting an Intel Core 2 Duo E6420 Processor
(Retail/Packaged) brand new from CompUSA for $339 and getting the same exact
thing from Newegg.Com for $179. It¹s the exact same thing ­ you can burn it
when you get home, if you like!

No ­ You own it!

Network Solutions are expensive, GoDaddy are cheap. That's all there 
is to it. In my experience customer service from both can be pretty 
shoddy or excellent depending on the day of the week and the phase of

My advice is that if it's between the two, go with GoDaddy - you won't 
get any less for your money than you would with NetSol.
